Process:
The production flow begins with the steel coil being decoiled and smoothly guided into the forming section. Inside the chain-driven roll forming machine with a guide-pillar structure, the material is gradually shaped into a precise wave-style metal roof tile profile. A hydraulic cutting unit equipped with customized tooling completes the curved wave cut to enhance the realistic tile appearance. After cutting, the finished metal roof tiles are manually collected for stacking or packaging, ensuring clean handling and consistent panel quality throughout the line.
